Hey there! My name is Melissa, and I am a native English speaker from Los Angeles, California. I received my Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) certificate in 2019, and I have been helping English-learners like yourself ever since!
Here are a few fun facts about me:
✈️ I love traveling! My life goal is to travel to all 15 former Soviet countries.
🌊 I'm an outdoors enthusiast - I love swimming in the ocean, hiking, and spending time in nature.
☕️ I could live on coffee and dog cuddles alone :)
教学经验
As a teacher I strive to create a friendly environment in which you feel comfortable making mistakes and stepping outside of your comfort zone. As a foreign language learner myself, I completely understand what it's like to struggle with grammar, reading and writing, and conversation practice. My goal is to help you not only develop your understanding of the English language, but also to improve your confidence so that you can speak without constantly worrying about making a mistake!
我提供的课程和我的教学风格
My lessons are 100% customized for you and your language goals! Before each class I will send you a message to better understand what your aims are and what you'd like to focus on. Whether that's a specific grammar topic or just practicing your conversation skills, I want to teach you English that is relevant to you and your interests.
Because learning a foreign language is a marathon and not a sprint, I make sure to provide students with the tools they need to improve their English skills even after we hang up. I take notes during all my classes for students to revise afterwards, and, provided the student is interested, I recommend HW based on what was discussed in class.

Melissa is not only an incredible teacher but also a bright, cheerful, and engaging person who is a perfect partner in discussion. She encourages you to speak freely and confidently without any pressure and helps you to expand your vocabulary and express yourself in a more sophisticated or just more natural way.

It was the first lesson, but I didn’t even feel how time flew by. The conversation was very natural, without any stress. Melissa is just great teacher! I'm excited to continue working with her. I feel like I've chosen the right path.
